The invention provides an anti-
lightning protection method and
system for a wind
turbine generator. The method comprises the steps that S1, an
electric field sensor is used for monitoring the intensity of an environment
electric field; s2, when the environment
electric field intensity exceeds a first-level early warning threshold value, a loop resistance detection unit is started, and
ground resistance values of
lightning protection channels of three blades of the wind
turbine generator set are detected respectively; s3, classifying the three blades according to the resistance to ground values, and screening out a preferable
lightning receiving blade; s4, continuously monitoring the environment electric
field intensity, and executing a shutdown lightning protection strategy when the environment electric
field intensity exceeds a second-level action threshold value; and S5, in the shutdown lightning protection strategy, a
yaw system and a variable
pitch system of the wind
turbine generator are controlled, the screened optimal lightning receiving blade is locked at a vertically upward position to serve as a target lightning receiving blade, and an auxiliary grounding device installed between the main shaft and the
tower drum is closed. According to the method, the blade in the optimal state can be selected as the
lightning arrester through self-inspection, and the posture of the unit is adjusted to achieve optimal drainage.
